RE: dumb spark plug question
You can get the gapper (dont know exactally what you would call it lol) at autozone or any parts store for like 2 bucks. They make them so you can put them on your keychains, etc.

You don't gap iridium plugs (unless you know what you're doing).
Most copper/platinum plugs simply need to be tapped against a table lightly to work them down to the gap you need.
You can't stick a gapper in iridiums. The electrode is a very thin piece of metal, like a needle. If you are hamfisted you will break the electrode right off or worse, weaken the metal and it will break off after you've already installed them and the car is running.
